Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX620 HS is significantly lighter (359g ) than the Nikon B500 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix B500 nor Canon PowerShot SX620 HS provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon B500 and Canon SX620 HS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon B500 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Canon SX620 HS has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to B500.
